Retired NASA Astronaut Colonel Michael Fossum served as commander of the International Space Station and has spent over 194 days in space and logged 48 hours spacewalk time in his 19 years with NASA. Boeing astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore, have had their test mission aboard the ISS extended to February due to issues with the Boeing Starliner spacecraft's propulsion system. NASA and Boeing will test and determine the capability of the capsule to safely return to Earth, but currently, the plan is for the two astronauts to return to Earth next year in a SpaceX capsule, and not the Boeing spacecraft.
